Ian Turner (C'08, Nat. Res.) recently wrote in and let us know that he was living in South Lake Tahoe, working for the Tahoe Resource Conservation District. His work focuses on aquatic and terrestrial invasive species---sampling, mapping, education and outreach.
The real reason that he wrote was to inform us of some great work conducted by another alum, Patrick Rakes, a former Natural Resources major. Ian wrote "Conservation Fisheries, a non-profit that specializes in breeding rare and endangered freshwater fish, was started by a Natty Re Alum: Patrick Rakes. A number of fish from his lab were featured in a National Geographic article last year."
